Description

MULTI-TUBE MANOMETER

A 36-tube tilting manometer for measuring pressure on models in subsonic wind tunnels and fan test sets, including TecQuipment’s Subsonic Wind Tunnel series. A backboard with graduated scale holds each manometer tube. For safety and convenience, the manometer uses water as the manometer fluid. This is via an adjustable reservoir with fine-adjust hand-wheel held at the side of the equipment. Water colouring is included to aid visibility.

The top of each manometer tube has a connection piece for tubing to connect to pressure tappings on the equipment being monitored. The whole manometer tube assembly is mounted on a swivel. This allows it to be tilted in pre-set increments to increase the sensitivity of measurement. Adjustable feet enable the whole apparatus to be precisely levelled before use. The manometer is supplied with operating instructions, a filling funnel and a spirit level.

Essential Base Units
AF1300 Subsonic Wind Tunnel 1020

SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 305 mm

VDAS AF1300 - Base Unit

A compact, free-standing, open-circuit suction subsonic wind tunnel with a working section of 305 mm by 305 mm and 600 mm long, allowing students to perform advanced study such as analysing boundary layers, performing flow visualisation and observing velocity in the wake, offering extensive teaching and research functionality.

Af1600S SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 600mm 1118

SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 600mm

VDAS AF1600S - Package

TecQuipment’s largest open-circuit subsonic wind tunnel, with a working section of 600 mm by 600 mm and 1250 mm long, is for the study of advanced aerodynamics theory and research. With the larger size comes greater visualisation and more accurate results, operating at meaningful Reynolds numbers.

AF1450 Subsonic Wind Tunnel 1122

SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 450mm

VDAS AF1450S - Package

A sizable open circuit, suction subsonic wind tunnel with a working section of 450 mm by 450 mm and 1000 mm length. It provides a cost-effective balance between being able to carry out advanced aerodynamics study, while having a smaller footprint than the largest of TecQuipment’s wind tunnels.
